Went out of Keaton yesterday, it was a beautiful day. Went north to spring warrior, not much luck up that way, water was dark. Decided to make the long run south to try and find some clear water. We found clear water and the trout in 4 foot south of big grass. The wind did pick up later in the day, ...

Silverking I would be booking a charter with someone and staying on the boat not camping. Most of what I have seen is around 45’. That is one of the things I was hoping someone had was a recommendation on what charter to use. I used one of your recommendations for a captain in ft. Myers several year...

Thanks for the replies so far, the Venice LA. Trip was awesome and definitely want to go back, but my son wants to try somewhere new. If we end up settling on the dry tortugas, we will be staying on the boat for couple days not camping. Looking at couple different charters for that trip but would lo...

My son wants to do a fishing trip for his senior trip, looking at doing 3-4 days somewhere. It would be in June after graduation, I am leaning toward a trip to the dry tortugas. I would love to hear if anyone has done this trip, and any recommendations about it. I am also open to other trips or reco...

Arrived to busy boat ramp at 9:00am Friday. Waited our turn and launched and headed out to a heavy fog. Visibility was not much, slowly made our way out of the channel and started drifting in about 3’ 1/2 water temp was 70 and water was clear. Picked up a few keepers while fishing thru shorts. The f...

Had a chance to go on the 1st day of the new year. Well we struck out big time, we went south out of Keaton and fished 1’ to 8’ and could not find the fish. Water was stained and 67 degrees. We threw plugs, cork rigs, jigs and anything else we had in the box. Did not try live bait as we did not have...

If Juan does not get it, I will take it.

Had a chance to get down to Keaton today, it had been a while (June). Headed to spring warrior area and found a few fish on the bars. It was slick calm in the morning with a few sprinkles and a incoming tide. On the water at 8:30 and the bite was steady until lunch when the tide changed, then the bi...

Well been down at PCB all week, and got to do a little fishing. Thanks for for all the replies and help offered in my earlier post. My report is we struggled with the inshore bite, no redfish all week and few trout. We did manage some jacks off the beach. We run out about 7 miles one day and managed...

Updated with a couple pictures and water temp

Trout Trent no we are staying on the other side of the bridge on the lagoon

Made a quick trip to Keaton today, headed north to spring warrior and fished from the grass line out 10’ and could not get a bite. Fished from 6:30 until about 9:30 and with nothing to show for it ( not even a trash fish ) we made the run south. We run until the water started to clear up between pin...

SG not sure what ramp I will launch from but the place we rented has a boat dock on the lower lagoon. Juan thanks for the tip on bait, and the wreck. I am sure we will have a blast just fishing new water, we are looking forward to it. On a side note I was able take off this Friday so I am going to s...
